SCIENCE BLASTS STRANGE IDEAS REGARDING FOOD Research Proves That Many Peoples’ Superstitions Are Groundless. Mpny of our pet superstitions about foods, cooking methods and digestibility are being shattered by scientific investigations and re- 1 search. There are, of course, some persons with whom certain foods do not agree. When this is discovered one should by all means avoid those foods. But sometimes the I idiosyncrasy is not real but fan-1 cied. Persons who are in normal health and do not over-indulge may enjoy almost any palatably combination with no misgivings.

Fish, Milk Harmonize All authorities now agree that fish and milk “are in perfect harmony, like all simple, wholesome foods." I quote from an article on this subject by a famous physician and dietitian. The taste of food is no guide to its final reaction in the body for it is only after the system has made use of its fuel that the nature of the ash can be determined. Rome foods after being digested and utilized by the body have an acid reaction in the blood and others are alkaline. But you can't tell by the taste. Thus although lemons are sour because of the organic arids they contain, their effect is alkaline. Apples, muskmelons, oranges and potatoes have been found experimentally to be very efficient in reducing body acidity. The practice of eating acid foods in the same meal with milk or of using milk or cream on fruits has been condemned. However, the acid is actually a help rather than a hindrance to milk in digestion. It is a common practice to beat orange or lemon Juice or tomato juice into milk or to sour milk artificially for persons with weak digestion. Eat Hot Pastries Carefr.lly Pancakes, waffles, muffins and hot breads of all varieties are not in themselves unwholesome food, but they have a bad reputation with many people, in the first place they usually are eaten without proper mastication on account of their softness. Then they often are served with much butter and syrup and the tendency is to eat largely to the exclusion of more essential foods. Finally, they are so inviting that they cause most of us to overeat. Eaton in no larger amounts than plain cold bread, with no greater amounts of fat and sweet, and chewed thoroughly, they should be as easy to digest as cold bread. Veal is no more indigestible than fish, chicken or beef. In France it is given to invalids as we give chicken in this country, yet for years it has had the reputation of being a very difficult meat to digest. Os course, the art of cooking enters into this question of digestibility. Improper cooking methods

can ruin the digestibility as well as the palatableness of foods. Undercooked starches and over-heated fats certainly are not easy for the digestive apparatus to take care of and in many cases it has been the cooking of the food rather than the food itself that has caused trouble.

CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE MAKES PARTY DISH Frozen Treat Easily Made, Well Received. Frozen chocolate souffle is a partydish of which any woman might be proud if she were able to announce that she had made it herself. This recipe is from the chef of the Vanderbilt Hotel, New York; Use double soutile cases of cardboard, a plain one that fits inside a fancy one. (The stores have them, and they are not expensive.) The ingredients are half a pint each of chocolate ice cream and chocolate paste, u quart of cream whipped firm, four ounces of powdered sugar and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix in this order. Place in souffle cases and freeze. Before filling the cases fasten paper bands around the plain ones, an inch higher than edge of case, and fill to the top of these bands. Before serving remove these extra bands and place inside fancy cases. The bulging top gives the appearance of a hot souffle.

JUICES, FLAVOR MAKE MEAT OF LOIN CHOP BEST Rib and Shoulder Cuts Next in Ranking for Desirability. The loin pork chop is the choicest, containing, as it does, the tenderloin on the underside of the bone. Not only is it juicy, tender and of excellent flavor, but there's less waste in bone and fat than in other pork chop cuts. For these reasons, loin chops usually are somewhat higher in price than the rib and shoulder chops. Next in desirability is the rib chop, juicy and of good flavor but minus the tenderloin on one side of the bone. Then comes the shoulder chop, which is larger but of darker-col-ored meat and with more bone. The rib and loin chop can be cut single or double. Double chops are especially nice for stuffing and baking. On account of the thickness of the meat, they take longer to cook than single chops. Always cook all pork products at a low temperature. How to Grease Skillet Panned chops are cooked in the frying pan on top of the stove. Trim off enough fat from the edges of the chops to lightly oil the frying pan. In other words, rub the bit of fat over the surface of the pan until it looks very shiny but there is no surplus of fat. Add chops and sear lightly first on one side and then on the other. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides after searing, allowing about M teaspoon salt for each chop —% teaspoon to a side. Now cover the spider, reduce heat and cook slowly until done, about 20 minutes for single chops and 30 minutes for double ones. When a meal is built around pork chops, it's a good idea to include one vegetable in a cream sauce unless there is milk gravy. Creamed celery is a good vegetable to serve with pork. Use the coarse outer

OATMEAL SOUP

Melt an ounce of butter in a saucepan. Add two tablespoons oatmeal flour and stir until it is lightly browned. Add four tablespoons cold water and then a pint and a half of vegetable stock (canned vegetable soup will do), stirring all the time. Simmer gently for one hour, then add one pint of milk. Season with salt to taste Cook five minutes longer and serve with croutons. stalks for cooking and save the tender hearts for relish next day. Stuffed Pork Chops Choose double chops for stuffing and make a slit through the center, toward the bone, with a sharp knife. Rub each chop ’With onehalf teaspoon salt, one-eighth teaspoon pepper and one-eighth teaspoon mustard thoroughly mixed. Place two tablespoons sage stuffing in each chop and fasten cut edges with wooden toothpicks if tiny skewers are not at hand. Sear in a hot frying pan for 10 minutes. Cover closely and bake in a moderate oven for one hour, 350 degrees F. is a good temperature to maintain during the baking. Add to this twice baked sweet potatoes, creamed celery, jellied tomato salad and apple snow with custard sauce some cold January evening. For twice baked sweet potatoes scrub and bake in their skins as usual. Then cut in halves lengthwise and scoop out pulp. Mash and season well with salt and pepper and lots of butter, adding cream if too dry. Beat until very light and fluffy and beat in one tablespoon sherry to two cups of mashed potato. Fill shells with mixture and return to oven to make very hot.

VARIETY IS KEY TO GOOD MENU Broiled Grapefruit Recipe Offered by Chef. Even if some of the same foods are served every day, the housewife should see to It that they are prepared in a different way. If a man gets half a chilled grapefruit one morning, give him broiled grapefruit next day. The secret of getting people, dullards as well ns bright ones, to enjoy their meals is to keep the menu varied. This is the advice of Frank Hoffstatter, head waiter of the Hotel Biltmore, New York, supper room, who started his restaurant career by serving King Edward VII when he was Prince of Wales, at the Compleat Anglers’ Club in England. Rice, for Example “Think of all the different ways a woman could cook rice,” Mr. Hoffstatter suggested. “It might be plain one day, have tomatoes and peppers in it and be called Spanish rice the next, be cooked in chicken broth and flavored with saffron and come to the stable as Italian risotto. Same with nearly every other food,” he advised. “It doesn’t matter much if you have the same identical foods so
